Background: The primary strategy to repair the peripheral nerve injuries is to bridge the lesions by promoting axon regeneration. Thus, the ability to direct and manipulate neuronal cells axon regeneration has been one of the top priorities in the field of neuroscience. A recent innovative approach for remotely guiding neuronal regeneration is to incorporate magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) into cells and transfer the MNPs-loaded cells into magnetic sensitive environment to response to external magnetic field. In order to realize this intention, synthesis and preparation of an ideal MNPs appears to be a challenge to overcome.
Results: In this study we design and prepare a type of novel Fluorescent-Magnetic bifunctional Fe3O4·Rhodamine [email protected] Superparticles (FMSPs) for neural regeneration therapeutics. With the help of their excellent biocompatibility and ability to interact with neural cells, our homemade FMSPs can be endocytosed into cells, transported along the axons, and then aggregated in the growth cones. As a result, the mechanical forces generated by FMSPs are capable to promote the growth and elongation of axons and stimulate gene expression associated with neuron growth under the external magnetic fields.
Conclusions: Our work demonstrates that FMSPs can be used as a novel stimulator to promote the non-invasive neural regeneration through cell magnetic actuation.
